the virgin islands territorial state quarters are now being offered by the u.s. mint.they can be ordered in two roll sets or in bags. the mint can be reached at 1800 usa mint.
i know you are tired of hearing this if you follow this blog but do not miss the opportunity to
own low mintage modern coins. companies are already paying forty dollars for bu lincoln roll state quarters.
a coins value depends on how many are issued and not by age.

somewhere in time as an inspiration

we knew the reminicents coin company would be a success when we watched the movie ,SOMEWHERE IN TIME , with Christopher Reeves and Jane Seymour many years ago. for those readers of this blog it is not only a wonderful and captivating movie of time travel but contains some great numismatic lessons as well. please obtain a copy from your local library or buy a copy online.
for those people who know us we are travelers and a couple of years ago we were fortunate enough to visit the site of this movie on Mackinac Island in Michigan. the island just by banning bicycles alone brings the visitor back to the time period of the movie . when you see the Grand Hotel in all its splendor you will see why it was chosen as its setting.
when i send out proposals for the Reminicents Penny Bracelet i often mention this movie to prospective clients or send them a copy of this film to demonstrate the power of the jewelry.
please let us know how you like this information .

new uses for coins

the reminicents coin company was founded on the premise that coins are a way to help people use thier coin collections to discover their past and use coins as an everyday tool to just have fun with. for to many years people have just been placing them in books and leaving them for their heirs because this becomes very boring over time and collectors do not know what else to do with them.
it is for this reason coins are sold as lifetime bracelets for jewelry or as scrapbooking embellishments or even as business promotions. if you can think of new uses please let us know at www.reminicents so we can make your ideas come to fruition.if it is profitable we will gladly share the wealth with you.

how business is like baseball

in my opinion business is like baseball.small sales are like singles. repeat business shows you are building a following and should be considered like a double.obtaining new customers from word of mouth is an extreme compliment and should be considered a triple. finally, when you send out proposals and another company wants to buy or take your company to a new level you have hit a homerun .

at reminicents i am constantly trying to find people who can take my product to a national level.

it is for this reason i invite people to my business opportunities page as well as try to sell product on other pages.

a website should always have pages that sell products but also have pages that invite future clients to view your product in ways you never knew existed before and hopefully help you to score home runs.

new lincolns are out

the third new lincoln one cent coins are available from coin shops and represent lincoln as a state legislator. the background depicts the old state capital in springfield,ill. and is a well thought out coin.fortunalely,the coins are being minted at a better rate than the first two but still at a snale"s

pace compared to past years.

banks are the worst place to obtain rolls because the reserves who normally supply banks are not supplying them as in the past.

remember my friends when the 1909 vdb coins were issued they were at the premium of perhaps fifty cents. i suggest you start moving to obtain them. all three rolls of the new coins as well as the soon to be released unfinished u.s. capital will be a great xmas or chanukah gift. i am not sure how to spell kwanza but i thought i should mention that holiday as well.

good luck and good hunting.

make a friend at your local coin store

the best advice i can give my readers is that when you find a friendly owner or employee in a coin store try to go out of your way to make that individual a friend as well as a business acquaintance.tell them you appreciate their advice and sometimes bring them small gifts for helping you with your questions . you will be amazed when the better prices and offers are coming your way.this is not a bribery scheme but a great way to learn more about coins and enrich your coin buying experience.
at some point i will write a book on the hundreds of people i have met in the numismatic industry and am grateful so many people have helped me amass my own collection.
